Angry Birds Space demo at SXSW




Rovio and Samsung are showing off the upcoming Angry Birds Space game at SXSW. And while there are some good videos out there, The Verge has just posted one of the best hands-on demo videos for this game.
This is the latest iteration of Angry Birds, with an interesting spin and different physics approach. The game takes place in outer space and makes use of gravitational force to beat those pesky green pigs. One may become used to the different perspecitve after a while. But it sure looks like it needs some getting used to, as Ross Miller mentions.
The game was done in collaboration with NASA, which also put together a neat tutorial videostraight from the International Space Station. If you are waiting for this game to land, we already know that it will be released come March 22nd (for all platforms).
It might also be important to note that Galaxy Note users will be able to play it for free, for three months. The rest of us will have to spare some bucks in order to fling those birds out of this world. But let’s just sit back and watch Ross take us through a quick demo of Angry Birds Space, while we wait.
